Mike Neer plays and teaches Speedy West's "Flippin The Lid"

[c6e9]

Mike- very cool indeed! Great playing and teaching. I play a fender triple 8 and maybe I'll put my middle neck into that tuning. Did Speedy use this tuning much for his general purpose madness? I'd love to op some of his techniques- I've never gotten the bar crash chuffa-chuffa thing. I'd love to see you teach more of Speedy's technique. Thanks SO MUCH for this and your other vids.

Fantasic Mike!!

Can you tell me the string gauges you're using?

[Swingtools]

Fantastic Mike!! Can you tell me the string guages you're using for that tuning on your old Epi?

Thanks!!

@Swingtools

I'm not exactly sure, but with a short scale like that, I'd probably go .012, .015,.017,.019,.024, .030, something like that.

Smokin'!

Your playing is excellent, and that TONE... yikes! Juicy... Rick A. sure builds incredible p'ups. Are you playing through the Princeton? Also, what backup tracks are you using, and if you did them, what's your method? Sounds great, whatever you're doing.

Thanks, TW. I'm playing through the '67 Twin Reverb that's behind me. As far as a track, I recorded a quick rhythm guitar track with my '24 Gibson L-4 and played it back through my stereo. That's it.
